  • Trestle Arts Base Russet Dr St Albans, England, AL4 0JQ United Kingdom (map)

This Summer Trestle will be running 2 unique week long projects packed full of drama and games for ages 5-10 and 11-16. Participants will spend the day learning new skills from Trestle trained specialists and exploring the theme to create their own stories to share back at the end of the week.

Wild Child

For ages 5 – 10 years

Mon 25 Jul - Fri 29 Jul, 10 am - 3 pm daily
Sharing from 3 pm on Friday

If you could talk to animals and discover the secrets of how they live in the wild, what do you think they would say? If you had grown up without adults to help you how do you think you would walk, talk and look?

Join Trestle as we spend the week unleashing our inner wild child through drama games and activities, culminating in a sharing at the end of the week.

We Are The Wild

For ages 11 -16 years

Mon 25 Jul - Fri 29 Jul, 10 am - 3 pm daily
Sharing from 3 pm on Friday

If you could start from scratch, head into the wilderness and start a new way of living, would you? What would the world look like without the resources we rely so heavily on? No phones. No electricity. No buildings. You’re in charge now. Could you survive? How would you run the world?

Join Trestle as we explore life in the wilderness using drama games and activities, culminating in a sharing at the end of the week.

Cost: £125pp
